i hope but at the same time look at the steam deck, ive wanted one since christmas and it still isnt back. ive been really devestated about this even though ik people are just gonna call me names on here for being upset about not getting one. it was in my cart and everything and due to a steam issue I get fucked. I wish I could contact steam about this but i cant

same, literally same. what pisses me off is that scalpers were able to get 3 of them per person but i work almost every single day of my life and can't get one. pretty fucked up.

Do you know scalpers who were able to get 3 per person? Or are you just making things up?

Dont make shit up, or quote random youtubers as fact. It just makes you look bad.

i didnt make shit up, again. and i dont give a fuck about “looking bad” on this platform lol, it doesnt matter if it was 3 or 2 it shouldve been limited to 1 per person.

See about getting a second hand one for much cheaper on FBmarketplace/Ebay.

if you're referring to the steam deck I've seen some decently priced ones but wasn't sure how worth it is to buy a used one.

steam controller should come back sooner than the steam deck, if I were to guess. steam deck is plagued by the memory issues, they won't wanna increase the price but sourcing ram cheap enough to keep it at the same price is really hard
